The Commit, appointed by you to examine

iEsnrviews Regarding the serious Charge.
Against HIM.
WASHINGTON, July 80.-The case of
Passed Assistant Surgeon Crawford, of
the navy, who was arrested charged with
the betrayal Of the 14-year-old girl, Eva
White, was alive topic Of conversation
in naval circles here. Surgeon General
Gunnell, Of the navy, In an interview
with a Star reporter, said that DR.. Craw-
ford stood well in the. service, and he was
inclined to believe the story told by
Crawford to an intimate friend that he
was entirely innocent of the charges and
that they We're brought against him for
blnckmatling purposes. When asked
what action would be taken by the navy
department In the matter, DIR. Gunnell
replied that no official cognizance of the
matter would be taken until after the
police court hearing.
If the charges are not proved ground
less the officer would undoubtedly be
court;martialed for the conduit unbecom.
ing an officer n q gentleman, after in
structfons by the secretary OF the navy
to the judge advocate general of the navy
and he said that no charges OF immoral
ity against naval officers had ever been
made before that would call for action by
the department. GENERALLY such cases
occur at a distance from Washington and
tho department. is not called upon to act.
But such conduct almost under the caves
OF the navy department. building, would,
II proved, warrant the secretary to notice
1t officially. It is thought probable that
unless DR.. Crawford is able to clear him
self entirely he will tender his resigna-
ton from the navy at once.

CHICAGO, July 30.-Nellie Maltby, an
office girl in the employ of the late DR..
Ward Cadey Dunn, committed suicide in
his late home, at No. 800 Marshfield 9
nue.. She is said by those who knew. her
personally to have been a good-lookine
girl of happy disposition, well-edncated,
and intelligent. For a year or more she
had been in the DOCTORS employ at his
dental rooms at No. 1853 State street, and.
being much pleased with her services as
assistant, some time last September he
took her to his home, where she has since
lived almost as a member of the family.
Her pleasant manners and the faculty
which she had fer making herself agree

the house. Wednesday, morning at s o.
clock DR.. Dunn was found dead in his
bed, and all the day long Miss Matiby
appeared to be trying to hide a deep sor-
row. At nights Lieuts. Backus and Ross
came to watch over the body OF the
doctor, and his widow and Miss Maltby
retired together. e. Edward Dunn and
his wife were in a room adjoining, where
they had retired somewhat earlier in the
evening. The two ladies talked after
midnight, and Mrs. Dunn testified at the
inquest that the young lady talked to her
in q sympathizing way. About 1890
she noticed that Miss Maltby was very
still, and she called Nellie but there
was no answer, and on shaking her she
found her dead. On Immediately arising
and striking q light she fennd on her
dressing-case two letters, one addressed
to herself and the other to Nellie,s
mother. The one she opened contained
simply notice of her suicidal intent, with
objections for her f1nsrai, but the other
